This book reviews the structure and electronic, magnetic, and other
properties of various MoS2 (Molybdenum disulfide) nanostructures, with
coverage of synthesis, Valley polarization, spin physics, and other
topics. MoS2 is an important, graphene-like layered nano-material that
substantially extends the range of possible nanostructures and devices
for nanofabrication. These materials have been widely researched in
recent years, and have become an attractive topic for applications such
as catalytic materials and devices based on field-effect transistors
(FETs) and semiconductors.
Chapters from leading scientists worldwide create a bridge between MoS2
nanomaterials and fundamental physics in order to stimulate readers'
interest in the potential of these novel materials for device
applications. Since MoS2 nanostructures are expected to be increasingly
important for future developments in energy and other electronic device
applications, this book can be recommended for Physics and Materials
Science and Engineering departments and as reference for researchers in
the field.
